Setpoints may be written via the user map. In the example above, to change the value of Restrained Differential Pickup
to 0.20 x CT through the user map, transmit the following Modbus message:
MASTER QUERY MESSAGE:
SLAVE ADDRESS
FUNCTION CODE
DATA STARTING ADDRESS: high order byte, low order byte
DATA: high order byte, low order byte
CRC: low order byte, high order byte
SLAVE RESPONSE:
SLAVE ADDRESS
FUNCTION CODE
DATA STARTING ADDRESS: high order byte, low order byte
DATA: high order byte, low order byte
CRC: low order byte, high order byte
Most 745 supported Modbus commands can be performed via function codes 03h (or 04h), and 10h and special memory
map addresses.
a) FUNCTION CODES 03H AND 04H SUBSTITUTIONS
Function codes 03h and 04h are interchangeable. Both have identical message formats, and both perform the same action.
b) FUNCTION CODE 05H SUBSTITUTION
Function code 05h (Execute Operation) can be performed by writing the command as if it were data in the memory map.
For example, to write operation code 01h (reset targets) to register 0080h, the message format and example is shown
below.
Request slave device 11 to reset targets:
MASTER QUERY MESSAGE:
SLAVE ADDRESS
FUNCTION CODE
DATA STARTING ADDRESS: high order byte, low order byte
NUMBER OF SETPOINTS: high order byte, low order byte
BYTE COUNT
DATA: high order byte, low order byte
CRC: low order byte, high order byte
SLAVE RESPONSE:
SLAVE ADDRESS
FUNCTION CODE
DATA STARTING ADDRESS: high order byte, low order byte
NUMBER OF SETPOINTS: high order byte, low order byte
CRC: low order byte, high order byte
